Research
Overview

There are many opportunities for research involvement during residency training. With faculty interests including medical education, simulation, ultrasound, rural medicine, emergency department utilization, quality improvement, trauma, critical care, and pediatrics to name a few, mentorship in research is more than available. Our core curriculum includes journal clubs, didactics, and small group sessions overviewing hot to write case reports, clinical statistics, and manuscript appraisals. Resources and mentorship from members of the university's Center for Clinical Research are also available to aid in study design, IRB proposals, design implementation, and data analysis. Goals for our residents are for involvement in the production of a manuscript during their tenure with the program as well as abstract presentations at regional and national academic conferences. See below a list of our division's most recent scholarly activities.
